stemmed from endorsements by the European Chamber <strong>of</strong> Commerce <strong>of</strong> the Philippines or by<br />
the initiative <strong>of</strong> <strong>companies</strong>, MOD administrators, or students. If a student initiates the linkage,<br />
the relationship extends only for one or two academic terms. However, if the <strong>partner</strong>ship was<br />
